XTR Trail brakes - Wowzers

I got a second hand pair, fitted them to my bike and they weren't working very well so I just serviced them and fitted new pads, cleaned the rotors.

They are now so powerful all I need to do is think about braking and the wheels lock up! Any tips on how to tone them down a little or should I just let them bed down and get used to them? Should I try to let a few drops of oil out to reduce the instant effect?

He he Avids very funny I tend to like my brakes quite grabby so I suppose I'll get used to it quite quickly, glad I swapped down from a 203mm rotor on the front to a 180mm rotor otherwise it would be ridiculous.

I swapped from XX Avids to XTR and must admit I'm still at the stage where I think I prefer the modulation of the Avids. The XTRs are hugely powerful and confidence inspiring though. And they're very shiny.
